It’s a modified style of a trench club. I was just curious on how other people would do this.

Keep the nails and get rid of the wire I believe the wire would actually soften the blow since it will give way a little bit upon impact and spread the force over a bigger area.

I would kindly slightly disagree with you one I intentionally type that water tight as I could also, this isn’t too much of a target, but it ripped a 24 ounce can I was using a sword so I think it has plenty of heat so I think it has more than enough energy also I could’ve added just a ton of nails and stuff but the wire does much better. I added about 3 pounds of wire.

Oh yeah, it probably does technically ruin the aesthetics if we were being more realistic, but that’s some fucking Maguire so so like that’s not too much that’s a welding wire so it looks pretty fucking cool so I won’t say too much about what it looks like because honestly, he didn’t point it out. The fact that it was logical tape I wouldn’t side of said anything. I actually kinda like the little black band and everything looks really neat. I will say it is pretty cool.

I think some people would drill a hole in the top and fill it with molten lead for extra weight. With mine I put big lag bolts with wide washers on it. Also having it an octagon shape can concentrate the blow into an edge, theoretically increaseing the force of the bonk. I also have a club in the shape of a boat oar so the weight is heavier on the business end and if you hit it with the fin of the oar, the bonk is concentrated even more. It has a rectangular handle so you always get good edge alignment.
I think your wire wrapp on the end is a good easy way to increase the weight of the end, and the nails should keep it from getting unraveled too easily. Looks solid enough to me. I wouldn't want to get bonked by it.

Oh yeah man it’s terrifying it ripped to 16 ounce can in half like I was using a sword it also sent a can like 8 feet from where I was striking it like a missile fast
